XS1b kill switch question

[mick71b]

[/IMG]I want to put this single wire kill switch on for safety, but not sure how to wire it up. Any help would surely be appreciated. Did an XS1b not have a kill swich when new? Thank you, Mick

Look in the "Tech" section, under "wiring diagrams".

It appears there was no kill switch. A switch could be installed in the power feed to the ignition coils, i.e between the igntion switch and the ignition coils.

Thanks for your response! So I will need a two wire switch?

 

[retiredgentleman]

Yes, power supply comes in on one wire, and power feed going out on another wire.

Thanks again!

Yep there was no kill switch, no kick stand switch, no electric start, they used a single fuse for the entire bike, really stripped down to the basics.

Oh, sometimes the bike vibrates the key out of the ignition while it's running. And now you REALLY don't have a kill switch
